What I meant was that normally market conditions don't change dramatically in 1-2 years unless you're investing into a huge speculative bubble.

From a cash flow perspective, a shorter note often doesn't have that big an effect on the month to month scale.. but after (say) 5 years, the amount you're leveraged has dropped dramatically with the 15, vs barely moved with a 30.

We initially decided to wait 6 months or so to see if anything dramatic happens (not gonna lie, my spider sense is tingling - doesn't mean I'm right) before we deploy it. 

It always dramatically reduces the smell and usually gets rid of it completely.

There also has been a dramatic reduction in the number of bidding wars (https://themortgagereports.com/47875/home-bidding-wars-down).  

We did a large value add renovation and in some buildings saw up to a 50% increase in revenue (not all) and depending on the market could see a dramatic increase in appreciation north of 6 million in the first year.

We are at less than half of the level a year ago, a dramatic decrease.So, the statics clearly show that there is an extreme shortage of rental properties for our target tenant pool which means now is a great time to buy rental properties.Walter, if you select a property that targets the right tenant pool, the odds of quickly renting the property are better today than they have been in many years.

He's desperately looking for something that is in an OK area that isn't dramatically overpriced.

The choice by the prior landlord to allow their tenants to live dramatically under market rents makes me into the bad guy if I go in and jack up rents.
